Habangbuhay kong ipagmamayabang sa mundo na father-in-law ko si Gryk Ortaleza. Sya ang sumulat ng mga kantang “Umagang Kay Ganda” , “Mamang Sorbetero” , “Hallmark memories” atbp. Maraming syang naiambag sa mundo ng Advertising, Pelikula at Musika. Napakalaki ng naimbag nya sa kung sino at anong klaseng tao ako ngayon. Salamat Papa. - - - - When My dad died in 2016, Papa told me “Ngayon na wala na ang Daddy mo, ako na ang daddy mo.” At totoo yon. Ginabayan mo ako Papa. Lalo na sa lahat ng mga importanteng desisyon. Ang dami kong natutunan sayo. Kung paano magisip ng tama at Nararapat. Yung walang mamomroblema sa huli. Kung paano mangarap ng mataas. Sobrang collaborative mo. Lagi mong shineshare mga brilliant ideas and concept mo. Hindi mo ipinagdadamot. Ikaw Ang si Professor X sa totoong buhay. Hindi man tayo nakapagsama ng sobrang tagal, naramdaman ko ang pagmamahal ng isang tunay na ama. Maraming Salamat Papa! Magpahinga ka na. Deserve mo yan papa. I’m sure you’re in a peaceful place now. Please send my love to Daddy kapag nagkita kayo dyan. Hanggang sa muli Pa! Mag brainstorm tayo sa langit pag dating ng panahon. I love you Papa. REST IN PEACE. #GrykOrtaleza
